Our Partners
The Global Scholars program has a number of partners that we have teamed up with to help encourage and support our students in accomplishing their goal of earning the global scholars certificate. Below is information about those supporters and a link to their websites to learn more about them as an organization.
Jo-2-Go is a coffee shop run by the Special Education department and students at Mukwonago High School. Jo-2-Go teams up with student clubs, including the Global Scholars program, to provide a coffee fundraiser every friday throughout the school year. Jo-2-Go partners with the Global Scholars program for two weeks each semester to help raise money and fund the Global Scholars program.
The Mukwonago Rotary Club has invested in Global Scholars students since 2017. The Rotary, which is also highly invested both the Mukwonago community and international service initiatives, has funded a $1,000 scholarship for a deserving global scholar every year since 2017. We are very appreciative of their support in the past and continuance in the future.
Kiwanis is another local civic organization heavily invested in our community and schools. Kiwanis funded our first scholarship and continue to support Global Scholar students by providing scholarships to junior global scholars who attend the World Affairs Seminar (WAS) at Carroll University over the summer. At the World Affairs Seminar, students hear international speakers and interact with students from all over the world. Thank you, Kiwanis, for your continued support.
The Lions Club is a local civic organization that is heavily committed in supporting the Mukwonago community and schools. They have sponsored students from MHS to attend the World Affairs Seminar at Carroll University and, as a result, our global scholar students are able to benefit from their support. Thank you, Lions Club, for your support in our students and programs.
A Well Worn Story is a handcrafted leather company out of New Glarus, WI. The Global Scholars program is excited to partner with a small town Wisconsin business to recognize the hard work of our Global Scholars. A Well Worn Story provides our scholars with passport covers at an affordable cost, so students can receive a tangible and useful recognition reward for their hard work.
Above is a photo of one of the passport covers provided by "A Well Worn Story." This great leather product is the tangible recognition award our Global Scholar students receive once completing the program their senior year. Our hope is that this useful item will remind them of their journey in global learning and remind our students to keep travelling and keep learning about the world.
